2014 is almost over, whats your top things u want to do

[Ele'ill]

1. get into a god damned boxing/muay thai gym again so i can save what's left of my life

2. belly dancing

3. other dancing

4. practice the dark arts and magic in general- been thinking about what magic is and for me its really just a combination of meditation, perception/awareness, direct ties with seasons and weather and nature- an intimate relationship with the biosphere and the feelings both healthy and unhealthy that come from various day to day interactions within it, the magic is within us and how we act from it. But I'd also like to be able to summon infinite fire spitting black cat familiars by some time next winter i think that would be pretty useful and cool.

[Workers-Control-Over-Prod]

Definitely not practicing magic lol.

Probably also 1. dancing 2. drive north somewhere 3. surfing 4. push the limits of inebriation some more 5. quit my job

I don't think I have ever tried to surf before although I've tried snowboarding and I used to skateboard regularly. I thought about quitting my job today actually without a backup plan or anything but decided to get fired instead. Gonna work that out. What kind of dance?

[BIXX]

I wanna work out more often at my gym. Having a friend there would help maybe.

[The Intransigent Faction]

1. Find a steady job and/or get into a Masters program and deal with that shit in another year or two along with whatever debt results.
2. Find better ways to cope with my anxiety issues.
3. Get out and do more stuff downtown in general.
4. Think of something else big to add to this list. Maybe travel, but that's kinda dependent on other things.

In short, I guess, to keep moving because when I stay still I overthink stuff and feel all emotionally screwed up.

[exeexe]

What should i do now, now that i have cleaned my home o.0

[Danielle Ni Dhighe]

Almost over? :confused:

[slum]

i no longer have goals, wants, or dreams

[exeexe]

Almost over? :confused:
Its pure magic

[Queen Mab]

2014 isn't even halfway finished you fucking lunatic

[Red Economist]

Same thing I've wanted for the past five months of 2014; full recovery from depression so I can start looking for a job and get on with my life.

(almost over? what have you been smoking Mari3l? it must be really strong stuff. :confused:)

I used to skateboard every day. But then I stopped progressing and learning new tricks so I had to stop. Surfing is easier. Once you can stand up it's pretty straightforward, just different places and waves to try.

What kind of dance? Haven't really thought about that. I just want to learn dancing period, feeling comfortable moving around. My cousin knows how to dance quite well, so it's up to her what that'll be i guess.

[Quail]

I want to grade at judo and jitsu (to get a brown and yellow belt respectively - I've been doing jitsu for nearly a year and still haven't managed to get myself to a grading).

I want to have some kind of plans in place for when I finish my degree - hopefully I will do well enough and get funding to do a phd, but if I don't I need to sort out my back up plans.

[human strike]

I had a look at this to see what I said I wanted at the beginning of the year: http://www.revleft.com/vb/showpost.php?p=2703120&postcount=15

"Meet new people, make more friends, make more of an effort to keep the friends I already have and be generally less of a shit friend to people and not just use them for emotional labour, use professionally qualified individuals for emotional labour, avoid/overcome depression, act more responsibly and be more accountable, eat less/no meat, read a lot, become a generally better person. Oh and get a job (I can't believe I just said that)."

I've actually done all of these things except get a job and with the way things are going with the jobcentre on my back it won't be long until that happens too. Improving my mental health is a constant process though of course.

Now that it's summer I want to fall in love - nothing beats falling in love in the summer. I also want to cause some trouble and have a feeling there's going to be plenty of opportunities to do that come September. ;)

[Ele'ill]

def. boxing btw I was shadow boxing at work and I miss hitting the mits and bags, would like to cross western boxing with muay thai elbows and knees with belly dancing with queer ultra violence

Yo you should definitely work out with me at least a few times. Your plans sound awesome.

[MarcusJuniusBrutus]

Learn Arabic.

Write a master's thesis.

[Ro Laren]

Start working out again.

Get a tan. I was outside today and looking at my calves in the sunlight made me squint.

[Vladimir Innit Lenin]

stop getting injured

[Futility Personified]

Move to Bristol, get a decent(ish) job that'll pay the bills, find a woman mad enough to mitigate my worse qualities, finish my novel, record some serious folk-punk songs, produce my own hip hop songs (serious ones, not the silliness i post up sometimes) write 100 poems of actual quality and self publish them

Bring full communism to the planet

Get loaded on some absolutely quality drugs, start a bonfire and then watch the sun rise whilst dancing around it

[Zukunftsmusik]

Get a job and find a place to live.
Read theory/politics/history more seriously, thoroughly and regularly.
Be better at keeping my friends.

Also this:

2. Find better ways to cope with my anxiety issues.


2014 isn't even halfway finished you fucking lunatic

It'll be over before you know it.

[motion denied]

get by idk

[Rosa Partizan]

finally writing my master's thesis for fuck's sake.

eating (nearly) 100% vegan.

more sex.

(the latter one is the least realistic)

Yeah, I'll second that 'more sex' thing. I'm unlikely to have more sex than I did in 2013 but more than I've had the first half of 2014 would be fucking brilliant.

More sex is always realistic, but it requires giving up the rest of the things.

I guess I'm too demanding and fastidious to get laid regularly :laugh: :(
I wished I was more like "the main thing is that he looks good", but that's (by far) not enough.

[Os Cangaceiros]

I don't think I have ever tried to surf before although I've tried snowboarding and I used to skateboard regularly.

Surfing is so goddamn fun. I don't know if it's better than sex but it's definitely on the same general level of enjoyment for me. It's the greatest natural "high" I've ever achieved, probably the closest I've ever come to a meditative state as well, when I'm riding a nice wave.

You know it's great by how ridiculously territorial and dickish some people are about "surf spots". Surfers have pelted cops with rocks when they've come to break up altercations on the beach for god sake.

[Ceallach_the_Witch]

get on a masters course

drink a lot less

get a job that doesn't heinously suck

do a few 100+ mile cycling trips (holy grail this year is Liverpool)

join the gym again

[Tenka]

Learn Swedish.
Finish my rubbish stories so I can try the magic of editing to make them not so rubbish.
Stop picking at scabs.

[TC]

I'd really like to take a road trip.

[Zoroaster]

Learn to grow up. Christ, I constantly try to make my politics interesting by adding swears and all that, but all these people care about are the swears. This may sound elitist, but I wish I could talk to people who know what the hell they are talking about, not just "I'm a liberal, 'cause Obamies is da greatest, and if you don't like him, your a conservative, bigoted hater!".

[Fawkes]

stay fly

I thought it'd be fun to look at this again. Since posting this I did get a job and I did fall in love in the summer. I achieved everything I set out to this year - that's pretty cool. I was a pain in a couple of bosses/politicians arses, but I didn't cause as much trouble as I'd have liked though. Oh well, I had more important things (i.e. myself) to focus on.
